Download or read book Theology of Hope written by Jürgen Moltmann and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following efforts bear the title Theology of Hope, not because they set out once again to present eschatology as a separate doctrine and to compete with the well known textbooks. Rather, their aim is to show how theology can set out from hope and begin to consider its theme in an eschatological light. For this reason they inquire into the ground of the hope of Christian faith and into the responsible exercise of this hope in thought and action in the world today. The various critical discussions should not be understood as rejections and condemnations. They are necessary conversations on a common subject which is so rich that it demands continual new approaches.
Download or read book Flourishing written by Miroslav Volf and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-12 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than almost anything else, globalization and the great world religions are shaping our lives, affecting everything from the public policies of political leaders and the economic decisions of industry bosses and employees, to university curricula, all the way to the inner longings of our hearts. Integral to both globalization and religions are compelling, overlapping, and sometimes competing visions of what it means to live well. In this perceptive, deeply personal, and beautifully written book, a leading theologian sheds light on how religions and globalization have historically interacted and argues for what their relationship ought to be. Recounting how these twinned forces have intersected in his own life, he shows how world religions, despite their malfunctions, remain one of our most potent sources of moral motivation and contain within them profoundly evocative accounts of human flourishing. Globalization should be judged by how well it serves us for living out our authentic humanity as envisioned within these traditions. Through renewal and reform, religions might, in turn, shape globalization so that can be about more than bread alone.
Download or read book Letters from Lockdown written by Claire Foster-Gilbert and published by Haus Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the first months of the coronavirus lockdown, Claire Foster-Gilbert, director of Westminster Abbey Institute, wrote twelve weekly letters to Britain’s public servants. Intended to strengthen their response to the rapidly changing needs of an increasingly unfamiliar world, these letters chart a heroic journey through initial uncertainty and crushing trials toward unprecedented unity and transformed resolve. Rather than bunker down, she asks us to consider: what might we discover, imagine, and change for the better as a result of the pandemic? Letters from the Lockdown presents the twelve original letters alongside new, deeply personal accounts from public servants on the job. Together, this collection provides an opportunity to reflect on how public values meet practice as the global crisis unfolds.
Download or read book Westminsters in and around Westminster Abbey written by Tony Willoughby and published by Paragon Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-10 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the 3000+ people buried and/or memorialised in Westminster Abbey, over 230 are former pupils of Westminster School, the successor to the monastery school, which was seamlessly reconstituted by a foundation of King Henry VIII on the dissolution of the monastery in 1540 and then re-founded in 1560 by his daughter Queen Elizabeth I as part of her foundation of the Collegiate Church of St Peter, Westminster (also known as “Westminster Abbey”). The purpose of this booklet is a very narrow one, namely to identify from the available records the whereabouts of as many as possibly of those former pupils’ marked graves and memorials. The reader is taken on a tour of those sites starting in St Margaret’s churchyard, moving into St Margaret’s itself and then across to the Abbey, following the current visitor tour route from the North Transept, up the North Choir Aisle into the Nave, back down the South Choir Aisle into the Crossing and around the Ambulatory chapels (including Henry VII’s Chapel), into the South Transept and exiting into the Cloisters via the East Cloister door and finishing up in the Chapter House.

Download or read book A Holiness Hermeneutic written by Stephen J. Lennox and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-04-26 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America in the late nineteenth century was undergoing enormous societal shifts. Immigration and urbanization were changing the face of the country. New discoveries and new perspectives on old verities stretched its mind and stirred its soul. The recently concluded Civil War left America bloodied, its self-confidence bruised, and its capacity for controversy weakened. American churches responded to these upheavals in different ways with long-lasting consequences. The reaction of one small branch of American Protestantism rooted in the broader stream of Methodism opens a window into these troubled times. This book explores how the American holiness movement navigated the societal maelstrom and the role the Bible played in charting its course. The holiness movement’s response illustrates the interaction between the Bible and culture. It sheds light on the development of the movement’s younger cousin, Pentecostalism. It also adds texture to the Fundamentalist-Modernist Controversy, an important struggle that marked the early decades of the twentieth century and continues to shape America today.
